Good luck, hopefully you have a speedy recovery.

Wow, that sucks. Sorry to hear this. It's a reminder that occasionally we can succumb to events beyond anyone's control. The outcome would have been much worse on a traditional cruiser. Get rest, heal up.
Former Ride:
2013 F6B Standard, black; sold 7/2019
Latest Addition:
2016 Gold Wing Level 3, red; SCT transmission stuck in manual mode
2019 Miles:

Get well soon.
Simon, it was on I71 southbound at the frank road/104 exit east, a lot of tar patching and that morning extra special sauce. Thanks everyone, usually I ride in Icon elsinore hp boots and Duluth pants(convinced to get them from here) and Fox creek leather, just an odd morning thinking it would be too hot later, sweat is easier to wipe off. The bars will just be touched up, not sure if I will try to replace the madstad mounting plate, just the mirror needs attention or super glue.
http://cdn1.bikebandit-images.com/sc...0713032072.gif I will take the mirror off but not sure if 9 is cracked and whatever screws 14 screw to is cracked. I guess I can post a wtb add later. Any spare parts I will buy or trade for. Thanks again, not many sites I am on anymore.
Glad you are able to post, walk, and yes, breathe!
Speedy recovery!

It could have been a lot worse for sure, bikes are repairable but you will heal thanks to having a good bike under you, those crash bars are worth they weight in gold.
I checked my bin and all I have is the glass and the amber housing. You're welcome to those if you need them.
i did a quick search for mirror brackets and found the following. May be some cheap knockoffs, but it's only holding the mirror.

Oddly, my first time down was on 104 just south of that exit. But...that was back about '79 or '80. (Lived in Grandview, worked just north of Chillicothe at the time)
That whole area used to be popular for fuel and oil spills. That was back when the 'trash burning power plant' was still in operation...all kinds of crap on the roads around there.
Sorry for your pain, Man.

Hope you have a speedy recovery on the insurance part I have State Farm and I can use the medical from my car or truck if I crash the
bike.
You may check your company or state law to see if it will apply in your case.
